Sunday Salon -- Feb. 2, 2025

Weather: It snowed this morning,  big fluffy flakes. Now it is overcast and threatening to rain. The weather report predicts a few days of the same weather pattern. We'll see.

Photo collages of what I've been up to (or plan to be up to...):

Don and I took our youngest grandson to Paradise in Mt. Rainier National Park for a day of snow fun. Jamie did his darndest to make a snow angel but the snow was hard-packed and by mid day we had stripped off most of our clothes, the temperature was 65 degrees Fahrenheit with all the radiant heat. It was a gorgeous and spectacular setting.

Books completed the last two weeks. Reviews: The Mighty Red; The Optimist's Daughter; Playground


Currently reading: 23% ,    10% (audio) ;       25% (Graphic memoir);        25% (audio)                                                                                                               

Up next: Part of a library book haul.



Both of my book clubs met last week. We discussed James in the RHS Ladies Club; and The Red Address Book in the SOTH Gals Club.


Top Ten Tuesday topics you may have missed:

Our dog, Mr. Charles Bingley, has finally figured out how to jump up on the couch. He's so proud of himself. Ha!

Happy week!
